Matt gives a strange look when he enters the RI arena. Are the tribes already merged, or is he just surprised that all tribe members are there?If the tribes don't merge until after the duel, Matt is not in the shot when Jeff is throwing Omatepe the new merge buffs.

I think the tribes are merged. The winner of the duel then joins the merged tribe.

Wow! The winner gets back in the game this episode! Oh man now I REALLY fear for Matt. What with a cut foot and he being so close... Ahhhhhh~

They are playing that up to make us believe it's going to be a problem. When Matt was walking out to the Arena he looked perfectly normal to me. No limp or anything. I think he will be fine... But I do hope they gave him medical attention if it was that bad...

And oddly enough Jeff kinda makes a point of addressing that in his blog this week.

Our duels are scheduled long before we know who will be competing so whether itís physical, mental or both, it has nothing to do with who is at Redemption Island. Itís just luck of the draw.

I'm getting scared for Matt.

I think it'd really suck if the challenge really unfortunately involved the feet and Matt would have to lose this duel of all duels. But then, that would mean it's really not meant to be for Matt to go further... Man I already can't wait for the next episode.

The former tribes have big plans for one castaway who has the potential to change the game. Meanwhile, this same castaway grapples with the decision of whether to make the powerful move on the next episode of Survivor: Redemption Island.

Sounds like somebody is gonna flip.

Hang on Matt!

Yeah... And "grapples with the decision" sounds like Sarita to me. Since she has just been "betrayed" by her tribe, she might be struggling with the decision on whether to flip. Whereas Matt strikes me as someone who would be more willing to stay on his original tribe's side. Plus Matt's foot injury and all... Moan.

I'm either an idiot or am just not myself today (or both), but what's up with the person in the central part of the 30-second promo (at 0:03-0:04)? Looks like it could be Sarita looking up at the new merged tribe, but then it might be someone else, since it's different from what Sarita was looking like when competing against Matt.

Every reality star is someone's favorite

Winning isn't everything, but it isn't considered nothing either. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a tribal council, a pit-stop, a boardroom, dimming of the lights, and so on

I think that is Sarita leaving Redemption Island. At the same shot, a male with a yellow shirt(Matt) is sitting on the Ometepe side. I could be wrong though

I think that's actually Grant (who's to the right of Philip). Also, IIRC, Sarita "didn't bring her stuff" which means that if it is her, someone gave it to her on her way out. I don't think it's necessary to give her on the way back into the game, but you never know. Question is, if Matt didn't lose, where is he (if not next to the RIC area waiting to be called back into the game)?

I went ahead and did some caps of survivorphoenix's video, so we could see better:
